I agree with you about the moon* being essentially stationary in the lunar sky, nbalu. My comment was just that that photgraph of an earth rise was similar to the photograph of a moon rise down here.

If you're going to object to "sunrise" and "moonrise", I'm afraid you probably won't get very far. It's like tilting against the storm. Especially with all the geocentrists on board.

*and the Earth! Thanks, NEOWatcher
